Briefing

What Hype is tracking

Daher’s plan to deliver 60+ TBM 980s in 2026—potentially the program’s highest annual total—signals sustained demand and impacts near-term positioning for midsize turboprop replacement and expansion planning.
The combination of order-book visibility (stretching into mid-2027) and a new Stuart assembly line indicates capacity and production-rate momentum, a key factor for delivery schedules across the TBM 980 supply chain.
The Oshkosh-focused emphasis on a strengthened safety suite provides an execution milestone for customers and operators tracking iterative product and operational risk reductions.
